Conquer Club

Velika hvala Benga na izvanrednoj organizaciji!

Thanks to all the clans involved and especially to TOFU for being a great motivating force (and a bloodhound constantly on our heels ) for us to stay sharp and be on our best game throughout this championship! Looking forward to challenging you guys for the top spot on the clan scene in the future.

Congratulations to LOW from all the guys in Fallen! Well deserved win!

Thanks to you benga for running a great competition!

Gz to LoW. You are the only ones who deserve the winners place if not us. Well done!

Well done LOW

benga, correct me if I'm wrong, but should G1 be 6th and OSA be 7th since we beat OSA in our match?

While I'm not one to question that generally speaking TOFU is amongst the favored clans to win, I think Fallen will only end up 1 pt behind TOFU in the end. We actually will have lost less matches (2 FALL, 3 TOFU) while unfortunately we drew more matches leaving is with less points. However, having 5 draws means just 1 game result changing would have earned us 2 additional points and pushed us past TOFU this year. (and we beat tofu in our head to head)

Was going to say, The Fallen have impressed throughout and deserve a nod. Had the points been awarded in the other, more widely-used, fashion (2 for a win, 1 for a draw, which makes far more sense imo) then I think they would have finished above TOFU. 3pts for a win was only introduced into football to encourage teams to try and score goals and not settle on a draw. As that scenario cannot correlate to Risk then I can't really fathom why it is used.

Congratulations to LoW
Thanks to benga for running an excellent league. I speak for all Imperial Dragoondom when I say we thoroughly enjoyed all our games and are looking forward to taking part in Random League IV!

cause then you would be crying how you have better win-loss diff and FALL is above you

That doesn't make much sense. Here am I thinking Fallen should have finished above us and you make a 'crying' remark.

I think benga just misunderstood!

What a great event. Well done LoW. Can't wait to see benga's choice for MVP once all the games have concluded.

Thanks for the kudos, I was curious earlier about 'what if' 2 vs 3 had been used, but hadn't had the time to figure out the potential implications.

I just looked:

LOW currently 10-3-2 and looks like they'll finish 11-3-2, which would mean 11x2 + 3 x 1 = 25 pts, with approximately 46 games +/-
TOFU currently 9-3-3 and looks like they'll finish 10-3-3, which would mean 10x2 + 3x1 = 23 pts, with approximately 32-33 +/-
FALL currently 9-5-2 and will stay that way. which means we will be 9x2 + 5x1 = 23 pts, and will pick up a number of games positive in the last set so likely 35+ +/-

So, LOW would still win but yeah looks like Fallen would be 2nd....just barely. But thats a bunch of what if's and all that. Either way, it was a great competition.

IcePack

You'd be equal on points but having won the head-to-head would be above us, so the +/- games differential doesn't figure into it. Anyway...kudos deserved, you guys played extremely well.

No I understood it just fine.

I was misunderstood as usual.

Anyway since this is has gone too big for only me to pick MVP,
I will come back with couple of names as I said in my pm to clan representatives.

I wanted some of theirs opinion, but also as usual got misunderstood
and got only 1 reply back that wasn't what I was looking for.

Thank you all for you kind words appreciation, don't think I said it anywhere
or at least not publicly, also thank you for participating and helping me to finish this event as easy as possible.

Till the start of next, so see you soon...

Well played LoW and many thanks to Benga for an excellent tourney. Looking forward to RL IV.

well done everyone ... nicely run Tourney!

Congrats to the Champions LOW!

After calculating stats it will come down to your last game.

If cat wins she is MVP, if cat loses and wharf wins, he is MVP.

If you both lost cat is MVP.

Ooh, interesting stats. Well Wharfy looks pretty set to win his game. Cat's game is tense - we have the bonuses but also vulnerable players. Gonna be close!

Now that's f***ing b-e-a-utiful.
Well done all of you
And I'm glad to see that there are still games still active. I thought my dice were the slowest peices of plastic south of the north pole and that our trips was last game in the tournament lol. It appears that it is not so. Only right too... a trips beating a quads for the honours would be an honour my dice can do without.

That quads looks, ah how did Si put it.. tense.. haha, but come on TOFU, bring it home for everyone's favourite kitty If it was the game that pushed you to the stars to cat now that would just make birthday presents obselete this year wouldn't it

Stupied question but, what does MVP "will be issued by CDs" mean?

Clan Directors will issue a medal for being the MVP along with the war medals.
Usually the organizer puts forth some recommendation of who it will/should be.
